    I drew up the superman emblem in the oval today. It can easily be done as a standalone in different sizes for anyone that is just a fan of superman. I can cut it out of thinner material as well if anyone wants something to hang on the wall or whatever.

    so, what kind of pic do u need for a custom emblem? psd/illustrator...etc...

    if i was gonna get one from you id kinda either like to design my own so it will be different, but then again once i give u somethin to go by everyone else could get u to make it too... would there be any type of price cut at all if i got u a design you could sell the hell out of?

    I charge 55 + 10 for shipping for predesigned emblems and 65 for something with more complicated design, since it can take some time to draw these guys up. I am actually going to be starting a group buy soon with options of 4 designs.

    This way I will be able to offer a discount since it's easier to do them in larger batches. I'll post some details, tonight or tomorrow
